Descrição: Four patients with rheumatoid arthritis had cataract extraction with implantation of an intraocular lens (IOL). Postoperatively three patients developed progressive scleromalacia perforans. All three cases required patch grafting of the sclera and two of them developed progressive melting of the sclera and graft. The fourth case involved progressive corneal melting with extrusion of the IOL despite treatment with penetrating keratoplasties. All four cases developed retinal detachments with loss of vision and three of the eyes were subsequently enucleated. We describe each case and discuss the clinicopathologic correlations of this condition. The need for careful evaluation of rheumatoid arthritis patients with cataract surgery and IOL implantation is emphasized.
